Reddit user Heavy-Chef-997 posted a picture of their incredible Suicune tattoo art to the Pokemon subreddit. The tattoo fully encapsulates the image of the Legendary Beast Pokemon in almost uncanny detail. The Suicune tattoo shows the image of Suicune turning its head, showing off the large crystal shape on its forehead. The tattoo itself seems like it is on the calf on the back of the leg, about the same spot another Pokemon fan got a tattoo of Poliwrath.
The artist and original poster of this tattoo has received a lot of praise from comments on the incredible artwork. The post has acquired over 40 thousand upvotes and 147 comments from other users and mentions in the comments that they are indeed the tattoo artist and shared their Instagram handle.

This tattoo from Heavy-Chef-997 captures the grace and poise of Suicune in a pose that has been used many times in Pokemon art but somehow feels unique in this piece.
